1. Change 0.015 to a fraction.

• A. 3/200
• B. 3/2000
• C. 15/1000
• D. 3/100

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert 0.015 to a fraction, we can rewrite it as 15/1000. Simplifying this fraction, we get 3/200. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choice B (3/2000) is incorrect as the decimal 0.015 is equivalent to 15/1000, not 15/2000. Choice C (15/1000) is the initial form of 0.015 as a fraction, but it can be further simplified to 3/200. Choice D (3/100) is incorrect as it does not represent the decimal 0.015.

2. How many pounds are in 128 ounces?

• A. 16 pounds
• B. 10 pounds
• C. 12 pounds
• D. 8 pounds

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D, 8 pounds. There are 16 ounces in a pound. To convert 128 ounces to pounds, you divide 128 by 16, which equals 8 pounds. Choice A, 16 pounds, is incorrect because that would be the conversion the other way around, from pounds to ounces. Choices B and C are incorrect as they do not reflect the correct conversion from ounces to pounds.

3. How many ounces are in 8 1/4 pints?

• A. 128 oz
• B. 132 oz
• C. 136 oz
• D. 140 oz

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert pints to ounces, multiply by 16 because 1 pint equals 16 ounces. Therefore, 8 1/4 pints is equal to 8.25 x 16 = 132 ounces. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect as they do not reflect the correct conversion from pints to ounces.

4. How many kilometers is equivalent to 200 meters?

• A. 50 kilometers
• B. 20 kilometers
• C. 12 kilometers
• D. 0.2 kilometers

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To convert meters to kilometers, divide the number of meters by 1000, as 1 kilometer is equal to 1000 meters. Therefore, 200 meters is equivalent to 200 / 1000 = 0.2 kilometers. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not correctly convert meters to kilometers. A provides an answer that would be correct if converting from kilometers to meters. B and C are much larger distances than what 200 meters represent.

5. What is the result of multiplying 10 by 5?

• A. 65
• B. 50
• C. 45
• D. 55

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B. To find the result of multiplying 10 by 5, you perform the calculation: 10 × 5 = 50. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not represent the accurate product of 10 multiplied by 5.
